Russian State University of Justice

The Russian State University of Justice is a university that trains the members and candidates of the judiciary (judges and court officials) of Russia.[1] Until 2014, it was the Russian Academy of Justice, which was founded in 1998 after a decree from the president of the Russian Federation.[2] The word for "justice" in its name is правосудия (pravosudiya).

Not to be confused with the All-Russian State University of Justice, which uses a different word for "justice": юстиции.
